The NAFSAG in a statement released on Tuesday, March 26 2024, said suppliers of the National Food Buffer Stock Company have not received payment since February 2023, while a selected few under the Ghana Commodity Exchange have been catered for.
The Association further suggested that there may be a purposeful attempt to disrupt the operations of the National Food Buffer Stock Company by criticizing the Ministry of Education for lack of fairness and transparency in distributing funds to suppliers.
“We suspect a deliberate and unconscionable attempt by the Ministry of Education to frustrate the operational activities of the National Food Buffer Stock Company to the disadvantage and chagrin of the suppliers,” parts of the statement read.
